Getting Ready

****Update to Grant's Field Day below with hotel pictures of my fancy lunch.

Well, I'm a little bit behind in getting my pictures posted. We've been busy with all of the move preparations and end of the school year things. But in the spirit of cleaning and purging I'm getting the pictures up now. I'm putting orignal dates on all of them so it all makes sense to me years from now. Probably some of our last pics of Canada. Unless it snows in the next 9 days!

Mason's Soccer Party

Mason's soccer team had a party at a local playground. (Grant's team went to Dairy Queen, but we were running late and I forgot my camera.) The kids all had a ton of fun playing together, eating lunch, and getting medals (again.)

Grant's Field Day

Grant had field day on Thursday afternoon. I was a little late as I had lunch with my boss at a fancy downtown hotel. As usual, Mason was right there in it with all of the big kids.


This is the Harvest Room where we ate, but we ate on the patio.

This is the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald in downtown Edmonton.

Soccer Tournament

Mason and Grant participated in a soccer tournament. Grant had three games in one day, and prior to the tournament Grant had two rugby games. Mason only had two games. They were both sure wiped out! Mason's team doesn't keep score, but they didn't do so well. Grant's team won all three of their games. Even the last game that was against and older girls team! The boys found that very exciting.

They had free hotdogs for the players and a fire truck and police cruiser on display.

Sports

We spent Saturday playing sports again. At least this time it was nice out. But don't let the pictures fool you, we were still in jackets. The big boys each have two rugby games and Mason has a soccer game on Saturdays. Mason hasn't had the chance to play outside too many times due to rain and a minor injury. He was particularly excited to have Daddy there to watch.
